An informed consent form before any treatment is done.

 

 

 

 

 

As a patient, you should be asked to sign an informed consent form before any treatment is done. Suppose your doctor advised that your left ovary/testicle was diseased and needed to be removed, and you gave the informed consent to remove the left ovary/testicle. When the doctor saw the left ovary/testicle, he realized it was the right ovary/testicle, so he removed the right ovary/testicle instead without reviving you to get a new consent Do you feel the doctor made the correct decision? Why, or why not? What do you feel you as the patient should do in this situation, and why?
